And no, I do not refer to the first game here. First time I played was quite some years ago, it was 2001 at a summer camp being held in Saratoga NY, and the camp was funded by a place in Maryland.

Yes, but what about MoM. He got killed before anything. I'm voting for something DarthMauler said, in this game. Not something someone else said about him. Not because everyone else is doing it. And not because of something that happened in another game.

And, of course, plying for sympathy isn't out of the realms of possibility either.

You on the other hand pointed right at Darth and, however slyly, said "Hey, YOU, vote or you'll get bad attention." Thats pressure. Why, as Newb pointed out, didn't you ask anybody else who had posted but not voted to vote, myself included? My theory? You only asked the person who was closest to the chopping block, so that when you jumped down his throat he wouldn't be able to scream out his defense before the decapitation.

Just for fun, what could have Darth said to convince you? Who could he have safely voted for? If he did in fact use just his head would that have stayed your vote? Or, as I suspect, were you already set on your voting path and just needed the post to cement it.

My vote stands.

And how is DarthMauler not voting any less stupid for not voting? I didn't tell him anything. Stop putting words in my mouth. I asked him a question.

I didn't ask anyone to vote. I asked, why didn't he vote, even after he was in trouble. He could have pointed at one of his accusers and said, "That's a pretty stupid reason to vote for me." That's part of defending yourself.

Darth can still convince me if he details exactly why he posted that equation and how it came about. I left that in my reasons even. And as for who he could have voted for, how about one of the people who are blindly bandwagoning him? I gave reasons, unlike some others. And how could I be set on a path when I gave him every oppurtunity (and still do) to convince me otherwise?

As for you, CMP, why aren't you responding to my previous statement of "I didn't do this quickly". Because I didn't. Not responding to the accused defenses is really, really scummy.
